Found my old build thread from galantforums.com which isnt around anymore I cant seem to copy any of it. Everything on the car is done by myself if not assisted. I'll continue the update on this thread if anyone is interested.

I thought this would be easier, but there was alot of imperfection and cracked areas. A 2-3 hour project took me 8 hours so far. Thinking to work on it some more in the future but for now its presentable.

Started with this.

Thanks Corey, always can use the moral support.


looks good my front bumper looks the same lol

Except mine is one piece lol. I might do fiber glass a custom thing at the grill like how the cyber bumper has it.

Edit: Also, I do have agx/s-teins I have not put on yet if anyone is wondering about a drop.
